Measuring rounds

This is how I do it .
The bent wire on the 251 is attached to a Super strong magnet . It measures 16" wood . The All thread rod that goes through the hole in the bar of the 193T is adjustable . At the moment it's set for 18" wood. But is adjustable for out to 36" wood .

 

I do it similar. Rod on a magnet attached to my bar. I've got mine set for 16" which fits both my stoves.


My name is Mike, and I'm a hoarder.

 

Similar system here. I have a homemade marking stick on a magnet. It’s set for 16” but I have notches at 14,16,18, and 20”. Awesome tool to have when dealing with long logs.

 

Huh,good ideas.
I always just scratch a mark in the bar at 16"

 

I’m a Mingo Marker fan.

 

Simple and effective.

Folding ruler and chalk used here.

 

Yardstick and chalk gets it done here

 

Yeah I do it the hard way with a cheap tape and some paint. I'll call it scaling. lol

 

Dont you mean yadstick?

 

Yahdstick

 

Are Pizza & Fries really a thing over there? (Lady from Somerville was telling me about one time)

 

Maybe closer to Boston. Not a thing where I am out in the burbs. Never heard of it.

 

If and when I feel like measuring and marking I use a tale and automotive marker. Most times I just eyeball it. My stove will take a pretty long split and I end up coming pretty close to 16" to 18" my stacks aren't as pretty as some but it burns.

 

If I was selling wood I would measure it. Too much work to sell it for what I could get for it, so I just eyeball it as well. Like you said my stacks are not pretty either, but it all makes heat. Going to quit stacking this year as well. Unlimited amount of IBC totes for free, so going to build several 5 cord cages and toss it in. Also going to make a few raised bed gardens out of half totes this spring.

 

Pro-sizer, nice little compact laser that bolts to the handle. Works great, battery lasts well in the cold. USB charger. Huge time saver and it out of the way.

 

Do people Not get an Overload of carbs from pizza OR fries ????
I can see pie and ice cream . Or cake and Ice cream . But pizza And fries . I yi yi . !

 

I needed something fast and accurate last year for a customer that wanted exactly 16" wood . And had another order for 18" wood . So the all thread , fender washers and nuts .
The bent wire and magnet one , a friend made up and gave me .

 

16 inch piece of white PVC pipe (white makes it harder to lose) and either a lumber crayon or piece of chalk.

 

Not if you are cutting in the snow!!
